Go to Post Gracious professionalism is competing with a team one minute, and helping them fix their robot the next. It is cheering for FIRST, rather than just your team, and most importantly: it is looking at the future and saying, "Together, we can do that" - WakeZero [more]

As they read it says that you may not use adhesive back tapes, but this isn't tape so I think its legal but I wanted other opinions if you wouldn't mind.

Thanks
Thanks for letting out our secret!!!! Just kidding... At first our team went unanimously for the ramp, then the vote flipped and I was stuck on the ramp. Now, well I still think a ramp is going to be lighter, safer, and easier to build, but a lift does have its advantages. So I guess it's official that our team (1741) is lifting...
